Dr. Kasheke,

I read in detail your correspondence about Elizabeth's situation and felt an anointing come over me! I'm thankful for your deep insights into this problem. I never understood why it was so bad. Yes, you can post your response to me with the names changed and my name as "sister." I'm sure that this writing will help people.

Gloria - USA

Answer From Dr. A Kasheke,

Dear Sister Gloria,

Many greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior. Please receive my condolences for the tragedy that has happened in New York and Washington. We are asking special prayers from everyone here, that Christ will heal our souls, and especially the heart of family members of those who have lost their loved ones in this horrific event that happened on Tuesday, September 11, 2001. Their loss and pain is imaginable, and we share it through prayer and supplication before the Lord here in Canada. Let us unite together asking our Lord Jesus Christ who loves all mankind, for His consolation. We know He is the source of all consolation, and will cause the Holy Spirit to comfort those who are mourning. We pray especially that He does appease those whose hearts are crying for revenge. Our cry to God is that He quickly reveals to the authorities the perpetrators who caused this devilish act, so that they can personally be arrested and brought to justice, without seeing more innocent men, women and children who knew nothing about this terrible attack suffer for something they did not do. Know that we are fervently praying for our sisters and brothers in America. May Christ give guidance to all our leaders, as to how they should react to this horror.

I must apologize for taking so long to answer your message of July 3 2001, in which you shared how the Holy Spirit was poured upon you while you were reading the letter I sent to be delivered to sister Elizabeth, regarding powers of pornography and how it affects a human soul. I thank the Lord for your desire to see this family free from marital pain, and especially Elizabeth's husband Matheson to be delivered.

Just to help you know how pornography destroys the heart, please note that this sin is a killer of conscience. Pornography is not a personal thing or just one individual's problem. It is a soul - robber and a destroyer of morality, purity, and integrity. It causes those who look at nude images to worship (pornography), and to indulge in serious immorality against themselves. One of the greatest hidden sins that pornography conditions its worshipers to commit is incest. Pornography incites a person to have sex with his own being, using his own body for incest and liking it. A person who is manipulating or simulating sensitive areas of his or her body to reach orgasm differs not from someone who is having sex with their own brother, mother, sister, father or other close members of the family. The Bible is not silent about this sin. The only difference is that this sin is being done by the person against his own body. The sin of masturbation is to be considered by those who love God as a sin of incest done against a person's own members, for there is no difference between honoring the sexual parts found on the body of one's own sister or mother and those found on one's own body. Sexual union and the pleasurable sensation it produces in the person who is being stimulated by their mate is and was only intended to be shared between two people, a husband and his wife. Pornography goes against God's law of intimacy. Pornography does not promote love between two humans of the opposite sex, as God intended it to be, but promotes idolatry as a person lurks for nude images to which he vows allegiance because of demonic activities in his soul that captures and destroys the person's ability to make good choices, judgment and decisions. Pornography steals a man from his wife, it steals a woman from her husband, and steals the joy that marriage brings leaving the home shattered, because the attention the children ought to be enjoying through by parental love from mom and dad whose emotional desires are met, is now emotionally destroyed.

When pornography enters the heart and establishes its throne, the natural love of a husband or wife is terminated, and it is turned towards self thus producing enmity directed against the one to whom they are married. Pornography is territorial and very jealous. It does not permit or allow the person it has imprisoned to share its territory with the spouse who is married to the victim. The victim becomes deviated from their marital vows, and is forced to have no sense of faithfulness to the promises previously made to the other person to remain faithful "till death do us part."

For a Christian or any married person, who is entangled in this sin, pornography does not allow them to worship God in spirit and truth, but seals their desire of worship by directing it to all kinds of images that it offers. The individual spends all his time worshiping images as a substitute for worshiping God. Each image that the person sees unleashes strength enough to render a human being, mesmerized, deluded and totally thrilled by what they are looking at. This is idolatry to its deepest core!!! A person whose heart has been kindled by loving nude images thirsts for nothing else than to spend time buying every porn issue or magazine that surfaces, and works hard to exploit all of its medium forgetting important issues of life, such as their family and friends. His or her heart hungers not for the things of God but looks for every opportunity to be alone to worship these images, for which he thirsts with passion. They forsake everything to try to fill the void inside with these images. They have no time for God, or time for human love, no time for their children, and no fear of its ultimate consequence of eternal damnation. Rom 1:24-32 gives us a gruesome picture showing the extent of deterioration in such worshiper's heart.

Note sister Gloria that the only yearning of a pornographic minded person is to run far, to find a secluded area where they can be alone to view the images, and by them make deviated love to themselves through masturbation. To such a prisoner, nothing else is of greater importance than the time they spend contemplating these images. When indulging in this sin, they totally forget that God is looking at them. They are captured and possessed by spirits because of doors they opened, and they are without help unless the church reaches them to administer deliverance. In the true sense of the word one could say without hesitation that pornography, masturbation, or the sin of incest isolates and quarantinesits prisoners, causing them to feel estranged fromGodly love and pure human love. Any expression of attachment filled with emotional love that a spouse may want to exhibit is received with contempt and repulsion, that the controlling spirits living inside use to stop the flow of true and genuine love from the mate who is not ensnared in order to injure them and render their act futile, fruitless and inconsiderate. Again the aim from these spirits is to cause the ensnared person to sink deeper and deeper in his isolation in order for the person to indulge in sexual gratification inducing incest and masturbation against one's own body. The danger of this sin is that it transfers from father to son and mother to daughter and may even enter and affect future generations passing it on down through the lineage of the home where this sin was not repented of. As the Bible says "Like mother, like daughter." Ezek 16:44 (NIV). Of course, as we read in Proverbs this also applies "like father like son." This is how worshipers of nudity and masturbators transfer spirits to their children. How sad!

Consider what the Bible teaches about the sin of incest that it is a terrible thing that could happen to a family if it is allowed to spread to its future generations. God gave instructions forbidding anyone from committing incest. He did not only stop there, He told people that some would not bear children as a consequence. Read Lev 18:6-18, 20:11-12, 20:17-21. Please take note of verse 18:10. It clearly states," The nakedness of your son's daughter or your daughter's daughter, their nakedness you shall not uncover; for theirs is your own nakedness." Does this scripture allow a man or woman to have sex with himself? It clearly says, "theirs is your own nakedness." this implying that whoever masturbates commits incest against his own nakedness or himself and bears the consequences of this sin as detailed in Deut 22:30, 27:20-25. As you can see from these scriptures, anyone who commits incest with himself or any member of his family has called curses on his own life and his future family lineage. The church and every one who wants to go to heaven should be aware of the implication that the term "theirs is your own nakedness"denotes and should help shose who are ensnared with the sin of masturbation to be prayed for, for deliverance. The most terrible thing is the fear to not ask for help as people feel ashamed refusing to come out of the closet by simply saying, please help me I suffer from masturbation because of looking at nude images that they must tell their Pastors or tell to a Christian counselor who is willing to minister deliverance. One thing I ask people in my church to do, is that we must relearn how to properly read our Bibles carefully. Not racing through it. In addition to this, Ezekiel 22:11, 1Chronicles 5:1 tells us the same thing about this sin.

If you may remember, in my books I wrote extensively about God's reason for creating Eve was to present her to Adam to meet his emotional need. Marriage is sanctified to meet both the husband and wife's need, and it is not permitted for a man to masturbate or for a woman to induce sexual pleasure to herself. This is to be done by the mate. In the Bible we see how God was angry at Oman who selfishly decided to hurt Tamar leaving her craving for sexual fulfillment that God intended every married wife to receive from her husband. His act of spilling the seed to the ground was a act of deprivation and selfishness and it vexed God; and thus Oman died because God hated the act. Sister, how many men would be killed today if God decided to act against this sin of pornography and its power of masturbation that causes both man and woman to spill their seed of love to the ground? How many husbands (men) are cruising around in Limousines through wooded areas, out of sight to have their seed poured to the ground, while a lonely wife is at home crying for love? How many wives fill the bathrooms of different places, cities, countries, on buses, or driving cars, masturbating and reaching one orgasm after another, pouring their love on the ground, as the man I mentioned above? Do you think a father or mother doing this can be of any help in the moral up bringing of their children? As you can see, Oman was killed because of the sin of selfishness. It is evident that as believers, God wants us to be responsible for every gift He gives us. We are called to be good stewards and not destroyers and mis-users of God's good gifts bestowed upon us. When the sin of spilling love to the ground reached its climax; God removed His grace and the man Oman died. I can assure you that those who practice pornography knowing what God is talking about, and they attend church, need to ask for deliverance. For this sin affects not only the person practicing it, but it affects their spouse, their children and children's children through generations through transferring of spirit; and if they are church goers they pollute the sanctuary, and cause God's power to diminish thus hindering the healing of people who genuinely and desperately run to the church seeking God's help.

Sister Gloria, the word asks that God's house be kept clean so that His power can be abundant to heal the wounded and broken hearted. It is very hard for God's power to operate in a church where people are not pure and where the consciences of people who enter its doors do not enter to worship with pure hearts but with hearts full of guilt. Guilt does not allow a person to worship God in Spirit and truth. Guilt is the part of a window in a human's heart that signals the person that their life is not right with God and they need to return to God. I repeat what I stated earlier; guilt signals that a man or woman is not free. It is like a blank that stands between God and the man thus hindering the person from worshiping God freely. To see God's power come down, people must be clean. Purity of heart attracts God, but sin chases His presence from a church thus affecting the extent to which He could heal. So you see pornography and the sins it creates in a human's heart is devastating to many people connected to the person who practices it. No, it is not a personal thing or private thing as you thought. It is contagious, transferable, and infectious to people. Its fruit is death! To sum it up, pornography promotes idolatry. It incites incest against self. It promotes masturbation and causes those who are snared by it to worship nude images that cause a man or woman to spill the seed of love that God gave them to share with their spouse to demons of adultery that have diverted their hearts to do evil. Do you remember what the Bible instance that tells how demons incited ladies to make love to them and even went to the extent of marrying women they chose found in Gen 6? It is the same thing. People practicing pornography, self-inducing incest or masturbation are making love with demons. The effect of the sin of pornography is well described in Roman 1, where it says that men and women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones i.e. they even loved beasts and other things instead of loving a husband or wife. A person with a pornographic mind turns his desires to images and lusts to satisfy his own body to which he brings pleasure through devices or uses his own hands to make love to himself.

I hope this will enlightening your understanding with regards to your comments concerning pornography. As we continue to pray for sister Elizabeth, please don't hesitate to inform me how she is doing.

You can liken pornography to this illustration:

A caring father purchased good and nutritious food for his wife to cook and feed their children whom they dearly loved. They believed that healthy and nutritious food was vital to them and their children's existence.

When the food had been beautifully cooked and seasoned with love they called the children to come and eat. As they were eating, they noticed that Beatrice and Gregory, their two oldest children refused to eat the good food. Instead, they left the table, went outside in the rain, sat close to a puddle and much to their parents dismay began to mix water with dirt and ate it. The father and mother spoke loudly to the children telling them to stop doing what they were doing. " You cannot eat dirt and live. Its dirt and you need to come inside and eat the good food we have cooked for you. However, they refused to heed their parent's truthful and caring advice. What do you think will happen to Beatrice and Gregory?

Of course, if they continue eating dirt they will surely die because the Bible says dust is given only to a snake to eat! Mankind was given delicious fruit and many other good foods to eat and be nourished thereby through God's great love. Likewise, all things God gave us to eat were and are to promote health physically, spiritually and emotionally. However, tragically, like Beatrice and Gregory many husbands and wives have refused God's pure and blessed nourishment. Rather they desire to become rebellious and turn to loving things, which they know will kill them. How sad that many marriages have died leaving the church full of casualties of lonely mates who injustly have to suffer alone. Sister it threatens me to hear the soaring statistics of divorce that has entered our churches. How does God feel? Surely, if He says He is a jealous God, then He has feelings and must also be hurting and feeling bad about what is going on in Christian marriages today every time a marriage is broken, or every time that a woman is felt alone and the husband runs way to make love to nude images.

No man or woman is created to eat dirt (images) from pornographic magazines or from any other source, but they are created to nourish themselves through good and true love between a husband and wife. This is why God created this union of holy matrimony and sanctified it (Deut 24:5 and Prov 5:1519) : it is to make love to our mates and cheering them up.

Sister Gloria, I thank the Lord who has given me this time to answer you and hope that I will be able to hear from you soon regarding Elizabeth, Matheson and Julia. Please let me know if she started praying following the schedule the Holy Spirit prompted me to send her.

May Christ-Jesus answer you prayers and rain His grace upon you!!! Amen.

Your servant,
 

Rev. Dr. Abella Kasheke
